Chapter 671: Jingzhou's Surprise

This year's autumn passed quickly, and it seemed that there was nothing to feel so fast, and the slightest chill was revealed, but it was discovered that the cold winter had come to the world.

A light snow covered Fancheng.

Fancheng has been reduced to a battlefield.

Since three days ago, the strongholds of the Jingzhou army camped outside Fancheng were pulled out by the force of wind and thunder, the entire Fancheng was quickly put on guard. General Wenpin came to the city wall in person.

Outside the city, the Mu army was camping.

Zhou Cang led the Storm Bear Camp and the Bow Crossbow Camp to find a place with water and set up camp.

The raid has already begun.

And the results are good.

More than [-] enemies were wiped out, and all the Jingzhou army camps outside Fancheng were pulled out. Although this disturbed the Jingzhou army in the city, the goal was achieved, and the next step was a tough battle.

There are at least [-] Jingzhou troops stationed in the city.

It was bound to be a bloody battle.

Therefore, after Zhou Cang occupied the outskirts of Fancheng, he quickly set up camps, so that the long-standing war could be maintained.

For three consecutive days, Zhou Cang has established a big camp.

The big camp is located on the outskirts of the plains, backed by hillsides, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

After the camp was built, Zhou Cang began to focus on Fancheng: "Who is the general of Fancheng?"

"Wenpin, Wen Zhongye!"

A general banner of the Jingwu Division came out, cupped his hands and said in detail: "Deng Long led the army north to attack Xinye. Originally, the general guarding Fancheng was Deng Long's deputy general, but I didn't expect Wenpin to be in the city. This is our news. Inquire carefully!"

"This Wenpin should not be underestimated. He is the number one general under Liu Biao's command. He is invincible in the three armies. He is capable of both literature and martial arts. Not only is he extraordinary in martial arts, but also in strategy, he has also convinced the generals of Jingzhou. Now he is the Sima of Jingzhou!"

"No wonder Fancheng can form a defense so quickly!"

Zhou Cang sneered: "This Wen Zhongye, I want to meet for a while!"

"it's not good!"

Hou Cong said softly: "General Zhonglang, we still need to be cautious before our main force arrives. I'm afraid the troops in the city are still stronger than ours. If we attack rashly, we will only lose our strength!"

He is the Sima of Jingping Second Army, he is half a rank lower than Zhoucang, but he is still qualified to persuade, and now it is the joint attack of Jingping Second Army and Violent Bear Army, all warships are Second Army He must stand up and speak out.

"I know!"

Zhou Cang is not an impatient person either. When he was a bandit in Nanyang, he would assess the situation. Naturally, he would not attack recklessly now, but the lord has ordered the Violent Bear to be the vanguard. He must prove the combat effectiveness of the Violent Bear Army.

"The main force hasn't arrived, so of course I won't attack Fancheng, but I can try to see if I can lure them out and fight in the suburbs!"

Zhou Cang said: "Hou Sima don't worry, the situation cannot be violated, I will not force it!"

"All right!"

After all, Hou Cong was not the main general, and Zhou Cang had the final say on the front line. As long as Zhou Cang didn't overdo it and didn't attack forcefully, he was unwilling to disobey Zhou Cang's orders.

"Pei Yuanshao!"

"exist!"

Captain Pei Yuanshao of Violent Bear took a step forward and stood by with his hands folded.

"You led the army to attack the city gate in the evening, just a feigned attack and provocation, you can't attack by force, try to lure the enemy to attack as much as possible!"

"promise!"

Pei Yuanshao bowed his hands and took the order.

He was originally Zhou Cang's deputy general, but with Zhou Cang's sole command of the army, he has risen. Now he is the leader of the Violent Bear Battalion, leading the Violent Bear's three thousand soldiers, and he is the most powerful battalion in the Violent Bear Army.

Pei Yuanshao led the Violent Bear Battalion to attack Fancheng, but stopped before the moat. Although he tried his best to provoke, he failed to arouse the reaction in the city.

"So calm?"

Looking at the majestic city wall, Zhou Cang felt a little helpless.

"General Zhonglang, this city cannot be attacked!" Standing beside Zhou Cang, Hou Cong said softly, "The city showed sufficient preparations before the battle for the two feigned attacks. If we attack by force, we will lose more than we gain!"

"Where's the waterway?"

"Waterways can go around Fancheng, but don't enter Fancheng!"

"Then we can only wait until Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao arrive!"

Zhou Cang can only wait for the main force to arrive.

……

in the city.

Wen Pin knelt on the upper seat, and the officials and generals below were shivering under the pressure of his gloomy breath.

"Who can tell me why the Mu army attacked our Fancheng?"

Wenpin is puzzled.

If he hadn't been ordered to go north to support Deng Long's attack on Xinye, he might still be in Xiangyang, and he wouldn't have discovered the herding army attacking Fancheng in time. , The barracks outside the city that were quickly cut off, I am afraid that half of the city gates have been lost by this time.

"General Wen, we don't know either!"

Several captains said with wry smiles.

"You are adjacent to the mountain capital, but there is no security at all?" Wenpin said coldly.

"General Wen, we have always cooperated with Mu Jun. In the Battle of Xinye, we joined forces many times, and gradually relaxed our vigilance. I didn't expect Mu Jun to be so cunning and surprise us at Fancheng at this time!"

Captain Wang Wei said softly.

They are not Deng Long's generals. Deng Long's main force is in Xinye, and those guarding Fancheng are actually part of Wenpin's troops. The main force of Wenpin is around Xiangyang, but Deng Long led the army northward to attack Nanyang, so he split a part The troops were placed in Fancheng.

It was originally used to guard against the herdsmen.

This is considered a straight move.

"How about our casualties outside?"

"More than [-] soldiers!" Wang Wei said bitterly: "They are too fast, too fast for us to react. They should have gathered in Shandu very early, but our troops in Yin County did not respond at all. It was the company’s water village that was pulled out, and then the surrounding camps in the suburbs were raided, and there was no time to rescue them!”

"How many troops do they have?"

Wenpin took a deep breath and asked.

"About 1 people, not even enough!" Wang Wei said: "The scouts have already gone to inquire about the news. They are building camps in the suburbs, with ten people per stove, about seven hundred stoves, and not far behind them, there is another , there are 3000 subordinates, so adding up, there are another [-] soldiers!"

"A mere [-] soldiers came to attack our Fancheng. They are looking for death. General, let's counterattack!" A school captain said angrily.

"Yes, counterattack!"

"Go out of the city and fight, kill them without leaving a piece of armor!"

All the generals were angry.

"Calm me all!"

Wenpin said coldly: "Do you think this is the main force of the Mu army?"

"this?"

All the generals immediately looked at each other.

"This time the shepherd's army raided our Fancheng, there must be a huge conspiracy. We can't act rashly. Now I have two military orders. First, send the news of Fancheng back to Xiangyang immediately. Second, immediately send an order to Deng Long in the north. Let them give up attacking Xinye and return to South County!"

Wenpin said in a deep voice.

"promise!"

Wang Wei personally took the order, and then went to arrange it.

"From today on, everyone, you are not allowed to open the city to fight. You are only allowed to defend Fancheng to the death, and each department sticks to the walls of each department!"

Wenpin stood up slowly: "The importance of Fancheng, you and others are the same, and Fancheng is here, we are here, Fancheng is broken, we are dead, as long as we still have a breath, I will not allow Fancheng to fall into the pastureland. Thief's hand!"

"Yes!"

The hearts of the generals trembled, and they quickly took orders solemnly.
